To this end I've been getting card and printing samples from local printers, trying to source the best quality paper and printing.
Tracking down the right materials is a time consuming part of the production process - I'm always driving around to different shops buying different pieces of card (and a million different pens!). It's really rewarding though when you find great stock.
I had a good trip to Amazing Paper in Enmore, Sydney, the other day, choosing a few card stocks to experiment with, they have a good range of different colours and styles, I'm especially interested in sourcing recycled card and paper and I got some good samples here.
For people out of Sydney, they have an internet site and do mail order and have good pictures of their papers online. I buy my cellophane bags here and even the kraft card that I reinforce my larger prints with. A great one stop shop.
